Agree with everything above; China has such superiority over India that it can afford to be patient and see how things play out. But this last paragraph, I really don't think India or Beijing would ever launch the first nuke. Beijing because it would be a war crime and it doesn't even need to to win decisively. India because they know they're gonna be extinct and India's gonna be Chinese territory (not that it's that savory with all the monsoons and burning trash heaps and shit).

Oh hell no, China don't want India, they got enough mouth to feed. And I was not saying that anyone would fire nukes at each other's cities, I meant to say that when you use tactical nuclear weapons on the battlefield it might get out of hand, for example Chinese nuked incoming Indian army and put India on high alert, India sees Chinese military advancing and India think they are going to get invaded, so in retaliation India think it has nothing to lose and launches nukes at Beijing, but India don't know China had no intention to invade India, but India just saw their military nuked face of battlefield so they asume the worst.

Let's put it this way, in 1941 when Nazi army wiped out half of Soviet defense, if Stalin had nukes he would use it on Berlin.

Well, how many mouths to feed will there still be after Beijing's retaliation from an Indian nuke? LOL Not many, though you might have to wait 20 years for the land to stop glowing before you occupy it... And that's what would happen IF India started a nuclear war, which they won't. Anybody smart enough to pretend to be the IRS and defraud Americans into sending "taxes" to India won't make that stupid mistake. LOL

But I agree with the point. Keep nukes completely out of it. It is in no way in China's favor. China can easily win without, and win cleanly. Using nukes when you don't need to is like pulling out your magnum and shooting a 10 year old in the face for being annoying.

For people who understand Chinese, very good analysis with a lot of background of China-India history.

(I found it through wiki inside
EXCLUSIVE: China releases new map showing territorial claims at stand-off site

and checked through images.google.com it's all over Internet, so be sure to tell me if you thought it's a fake: I expect nobody will tell me anything so I'll assume this is some official Chinese map)

... now found it broadcasted in Chinese TV:

What does pissing off the whole West accomplish for China? Respect, I'm afraid China's ego is not as fragile as you think.
I'm neither speaking of egos, nor responding from ego. You are! It's obvious that your inferiority complex suffering ego is far too overly invested in this exchange and this impels you to use emotion-based language and to make childish accusations "so stop acting like your feeling got hurt when US don't give China the respect it deserves". The US, when did I ever single out the US as having disrespected China? Therefore, as you are, as of yet, incapable of mature conceptual engagement, you have graduated to the Ignore List.
Congratulations!

Anyways, whether, or not, China chooses to sell arms to Iran is irrelevant to the military situation at the sino-indian border. So, will the next moderator to visit this thread please delete my posts numbered: 134, 136, 139, 141, and 142, as they add nothing to this subject.

Thank you!

Blackstone, can't change your spots like you changed your monikers, can ya? Ignore list LoL

Can anyone shed light on this border skirmish between india and china in 1967? Indian claimed victory but didn't really hear anything from official sources.

I have followed such matters since 1954 but cannot remember ever having heard or read of these incidents.
lol.

It was a small skirmish where Chinese troops stepped in on Indian territory inflicting heavy losses on Indian troops in the opening moves and later Indian forces repelled them successfully. Though there's a mystery as to who was responsible for the orders to advance on the Chinese side. No one wanted to be linked to this failure after all I assume.

... I'm going to post "a new edition" of the map which is above (it'll be basically the same, but concentrating more on ...
if I had realized how difficult it would be, I would've quit LOL will make two posts so that I don't quit anyway; first the situation, the claims later:

I decided to use mapquest.com map (I hope the roads, rivers are visible above); if you can't tell where's China; Bhutan; Sikkim then please stop reading this

what I have confirmed (coordinates in the links below) is in red:

in blue: I don't have coordinates for the two passes, and I figured the name of that river (while the name might be wrong, I'll use it in the next post)

The incident did happen during the Cultural Revolution in China so it is probable that the Chinese chain of command was convoluted.
